- [H2] Industry:\n\n\n\nCivil construction.\n\n\n\nClient:\n\n\n\nWestforce Construction is a based in Western Australia and was founded in 2006,as an earthworks and concrete specialist. Since then, the company has grown exponentially to become a major contractor that specialises in all aspects of civil and structural construction works. Their key areas of focus are the resource and infrastructure sectors, and the company has completed numerous projects for the government departments of Defence, Water Corporation, Western Power, Main Roads, and Public Transport Association (PTA).\n\n\n\nIn December 2017, Westforce became part of the Raubex Group, one of South Africa\u2019s leading infrastructure and construction material supply groups. Their expertise extends across a variety of sectors including materials, roads, earthworks and infrastructure.\n\n\n\nTo date, the biggest and most successful project completed by Westforce has been a joint venture with JWI Construction, which saw both companies upgrade the drain diversion system for the Vasse River.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Challenge:\n\n\n\nAs labour in Australia is expensive, Stanley Bubb, the financial manager at Westforce has access to a smaller workforce with which to run an effective financial department. In practise, this means that he and his assistant are responsible for managing the entire department from start to finish. This includes reconciling and paying invoices, completing all cost reporting and consolidating final reports for the Raubex head office.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe most important feature for me is the seamless integration between procurement and accounting provided by RIB with BuildSmart.\nStanley Bubb, Finance ManagerWestforce Construction\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore the implementation of the RIB solution, Westforce experienced a variety of challenges including:\n\n\n\n\nManual and time-consuming procurement of orders and processing of invoices\nIneffective reconciliation\nFaulty tracking of commitments and costs\nInaccurate cost reporting to head office\nDefective payroll calculations\n\n\n\n\nThe Solution:\n\n\n\nIn June 2019, RIB successfully implemented BuildSmart for Westforce. Having worked with this cost management and construction accounting solution previously, Stanley Bubb was already well acquainted with the software which led to a seamless integration with the company\u2019s day-to-day processes and workflow.\n\n\n\nBy integrating construction and project management as well as cost and accounting administration, BuildSmart empowers Westforce to operate as a successful construction company with integrated systems that ensure the correct execution and completion of projects.\n\n\n\nToday, Westforce benefits greatly from their use of BuildSmart, with the software providing an approval matrix designed to ensure that the procurement of electronic purchase orders is always pre-approved, and the reconciliation of orders is cost efficient.\n\n\n\nCost reporting to the Raubex head office has also become effortless thanks to BuildSmart\u2019s ability to export transaction listings.\n\n\n\nThe Results:\n\n\n\nSince implementing BuildSmart, Westforce has successfully completed a number of various projects such as:\n\n\n\n\nExcavation and earthworks for the Roy Hill Iron Ore mine in Newman\nThe construction of a new access walkway for train maintenance by the Public Transport Authority in Ridgewood\nAnd the Vasse River diversion drain upgrade in Busselton mentioned previously.\n\n\n\n\nGoing forward, Westforce plans to implement Candy and integrate it with BuildSmart to harness the full potential of the RIB Complete Solution; providing the company with enhanced functionality and visibility of their processes and budgets in real-time.\n","post_title":"Westforce Construction","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"westforce-construction","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-28 08:43:09","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-28 06:43:09","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.rib-software.com\/case-study\/westforce-construction\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"case-studies","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1745,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2022-10-20 13:26:00","post_date_gmt":"2022-10-20 13:26:00","post_content":"\nIndustries:\n\n\n\nCivil Engineering\n\n\n\nGroundwork\n\n\n\nBackground:\n\n\n\nEstablished in 1994, PP Construction is a British-based contractor that operates across a variety of sectors including commercial, defence, education, infrastructure and retail.\n\n\n\nWith a hands-on approach to project management, the company believes in partnering closely with clients from the planning stage through to final delivery; this ensures every job is completed safely, on time and budget.\n\n\n\nAs a result of this ethos, PP Construction not only enjoys sustained success but repeat business from clients such as Balfour Beatty, Croudace Homes and Wates Construction. Today, the company has an annual turnover of \u00a310 million and works on projects ranging in value from \u00a350,000 to \u00a310 million.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Challenge:\n\n\n\nTo ensure the successful day-to-day operation of the organisation, PP Construction has to be able to allocate costs correctly to their project and then track the progress of each throughout the lifecycle of a project.\n\n\n\nUnfortunately, before 2021, the company utilised a spreadsheet-based system that resulted in siloed information, manual errors and no means to identify\u2014in real time\u2014if a job was losing or making money. On top of this, the business also employed a generic enterprise resource planning solution that was not tailored to the construction industry.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupport has been absolutely incredible \u2013 even after-hours. Anytime and every time we have asked or needed support; RIB have been there for us. A quote from the last directors board meeting- \u2018These are the most solid figures and best reports we\u2019ve had in 26 years! We didn\u2019t use to know something was wrong until we ran out of money but now, we know before it gets to that and where we are losing it, allowing us to intervene and take corrective action before it\u2019s too late\u2019.\nZoe Perriam, Financial ControllerPP Construction Ltd\n\n\n\nThe Solution:\n\n\n\nAs a fully integrated cost management and enterprise accounting system, RIB BuildSmart was put forward to address the challenges encountered by PP Construction. Together with features designed specifically for the construction industry, this software seamlessly consolidates data for real-time insights no matter the stage of a project.\n\n\n\nThe Result:\n\n\n\nWith the implementation of BuildSmart, PP Construction is now empowered by a fit-for-purpose solution that harnesses data in real time to unite all stakeholders while covering every phase in the life cycle of a project.\n\n\n\nAs a result, the company not only enjoys the benefits of a construction-specific solution that aligns with their daily workflow, both in the office and on site, but they are also able to access valuable information from which informed decisions can be made on an operational, commercial and financial basis.\n\n\n\nThis, in turn, has led to significant cost savings thanks to the solution\u2019s in-depth and detailed reporting, increased collaboration between colleagues who all work from a single source of truth now, and phenomenal peace of mind stemming from superior 24\/7 support.\n\n\n\nGoing forward, PP Construction plan to implement RIB Candy and combine its estimating and project control functionality with BuildSmart, thereby unlocking for even greater cost control.\n","post_title":"PP Construction Ltd","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"pp-construction-ltd","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-28 08:47:53","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-28 06:47:53","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.rib-software.com\/case-study\/pp-construction-ltd\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"case-studies","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1740,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2022-11-15 13:26:00","post_date_gmt":"2022-11-15 13:26:00","post_content":"\n\/*! elementor - v3.14.0 - 08-06-2023 *\/\n.elementor-widget-text-editor.elementor-drop-cap-view-stacked .elementor-drop-cap{background-color:#69727d;color:#fff}.elementor-widget-text-editor.elementor-drop-cap-view-framed .elementor-drop-cap{color:#69727d;border:3px solid;background-color:transparent}.elementor-widget-text-editor:not(.elementor-drop-cap-view-default) .elementor-drop-cap{margin-top:8px}.elementor-widget-text-editor:not(.elementor-drop-cap-view-default) .elementor-drop-cap-letter{width:1em;height:1em}.elementor-widget-text-editor .elementor-drop-cap{float:left;text-align:center;line-height:1;font-size:50px}.elementor-widget-text-editor .elementor-drop-cap-letter{display:inline-block}\n\n\n\nIndustry:\n\n\n\n\nEarthworks\nCivil Construction\nCommercial and Industrial\nRail Works\nPublic Works\n\n\n\n\nClient:\n\n\n\nDavison Earthmovers is based in Adelaide, South Australia, and has been in operation since 1986. The company was originally founded by John Davison but in July 2021 was taken over by his son, Paul. The company is focused on providing earthmoving services to the commercial, industrial, government and civil sectors. They undertake a wide variety of projects, ranging from large-scale bulk earthworks using heavy machinery to smaller detailed works such as drainage, kerbing, landscaping, bitumen surfacing and more.\n\n\n\nOne of their biggest projects completed to date is the Mount Barker Regional Sports Hub which includes two full-sized soccer pitches, 28 000 m2 of roadway and footpath pavement, building pad construction works, two kilometres of stormwater infrastructure, and 700 m of grated-drain installation. The contract value for this project was $3.7 million and the construction duration was ten months.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Challenge:\n\n\n\nBefore BuildSmart was implemented, Administration Manager Mary-Ann Higgins and her team experienced numerous challenges including:\n\n\n\n\nThe execution of supplier invoice approvals and storage processes separately from their accounting system\nThe manual consolidation of contracts, plant ledger and payroll to the general ledger\nCumbersome, manual data capturing utilising a paper-based system\nA reporting process hampered by a lack of effective system report options and ineffective collation of data\nNo activity-based costing which made it difficult to establish whether a project was making a profit or a loss\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI\u2019d recommend BuildSmart as a fully integrated system that includes payroll, plant and procurement modules. It gives us greater visibility and control, as all our information and documents are in one place. The combination of value for money, for all these modules in one system, together with dedicated support is great.\nMary-Ann Higgins, Administration Manager, Davison Earthmovers\n\n\n\nThe Solution:\n\n\n\nThe implementation of BuildSmart began in February 2021 and the solution went live in May of the same year. The entire process ran smoothly and was well received by Davison Earthmovers thanks to 24\/7 support from the RIB BuildSmart team.\n\n\n\nSince implementing the software:\n\n\n\n\nFull procurement workflow now happens automatically\nUnapproved committed costs and progress claims can be tracked and resolved accordingly\nImporting plant hours is seamlesstakes around an hour to complete as opposed to eight hours previously\nPayroll integration has improved with pay period rollover automatically posting to the contracts and general ledger\nLedger transactions can be run according to categories such as contact, supplier or by contract activity code. Reporting options and parameters have also improved vastly.\n\n\n\n\nThe Results:\n\n\n\nDavison Earthmovers\u2019 workflow and overview of their projects have been enhanced significantly with the help of BuildSmart. Thanks to the boost in productivity resulting from the solution, the company also enjoys improved cost and contract management, allowing time for the improvement of other systems and procedures.\n","post_title":"Davison Earthmovers","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"davison-earthmovers","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-28 09:34:18","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-28 07:34:18","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.rib-software.com\/case-study\/davison-earthmovers\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"case-studies","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1741,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2022-04-29 13:26:00","post_date_gmt":"2022-04-29 13:26:00","post_content":"\nIndustry:\n\n\n\nSummertown Interiors is focused on Commercial, Healthcare and Retail related Fit-out projects.\n\n\n\nClient:\n\n\n\nSummertown Interiors\n\n\n\nFor over 20 Years, Summertown Interiors has been among the UAE\u2019s leading and most sustainable contractors, offering superior quality interior fit out solutions. Reputed for its green expertise and exceptional client service, the company specialises in commercial, healthcare, and education projects for global Fortune 500 companies, government authorities and local businesses.\n\n\n\nSummertown Interiors was the first fit-out contractor to occupy LEED Gold certified interiors in the United Arab Emirates and has also been awarded the LEED gold certification for its existing building; operations and maintenance (LEED EBOM).

Often the teams were only able to analyse the data in hindsight, by which time, corrections and alternations were too late to be fully effective. This needed to change. As a result, BK Gulf wanted to overhaul their fairly closed accounts system. The need for easily accessible, visible, real time data was identified as the core solution along with reporting and procurement functions.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRIB delivered more than we expected in a very short time frame. As part of the implementation process, the team ensured thorough knowledge transfer. This has enabled BK Gulf to realise the full benefits of the products immediately. We certainly made the right decision for our business by choosing RIB as our business partner. \nLuke Ashe, Commercial ManagerBKGULF LLC\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Solution:\n\n\n\nSharing Knowledge for better Solutions\n\n\n\nBK Gulf wanted a solution, not just a product. They knew that one-stop integrated systems are what we\u2019re best at. It was important for them to work with people who didn\u2019t just understand software, but who understood the industry. BK Gulf valued our field-specific knowledge, especially because our consultants had already come across similar problems. A fresh yet experienced pair of eyes was what they needed \u2013 and that is exactly what they got.\n\n\n\nImplementation\n\n\n\nOur preferred solution was quick and effective. We recommended a three (3) month programme implementing both Candy and BuildSmart simultaneously, focusing on:\n\n\n\n\nCandy Estimating & Project Control\nBuildSmart Accounts and Site costing\nBuildSmart Procurement and Materials costing\nBuildSmart Stock and Inventory Management\nBuildSmart Plant Management, Maintenance and Costing, Yard Stock\nBuildSmart Sub-Contractor Management\n\n\n\n\nThe Results:\n\n\n\nTime is of the Essence\n\n\n\nOur software is driving business efficiency at BK Gulf. Candy Valuations breaks down the BOQ, giving a quick snapshot and speeding up procurement. Information entered as work is done automatically feeds into the system \u2013 ready for reporting at the click of a button. They used to spend around ten (10) days manually pulling together cost reports from accounts release. That\u2019s now down to two (2) days. This has huge practical advantages. Staff have more time to review the data instead of preparing it. Audit time is reduced. And the board gets reports sooner thanks to the faster release of accounts information. The whole process used to take six (6) weeks. Now it takes just two (2) to three (3).\n\n\n\nReal-time Cost Approvals with Accuracy\n\n\n\nBK Gulf are now in control of contract costs. An updated resource list of the contract and BuildSmart ICMS real-time reporting means they can sit and discuss issues for the next plan \u2013 not old issues that have already happened. Data is hugely more accurate too. Information comes from source giving better quality data they know they can trust. They no longer need to pull together separate pieces of information together, meaning they no longer risk making errors. BK Gulf now have a tool to analyse data and find out if\/where there are any discrepancies.\n\n\n\nIntelligent Integration with Integrity\n\n\n\nRIB solutions are different to other software because they link and integrate all data. Everyone at BK Gulf now works with standard reports. In the same language. In the same format. Plus tight system security keeps their data safe.Clean cost data has been the biggest improvement for BK Gulf and it\u2019s thanks to our seamless link between procurement and cost accounting. They have the cost and activity codes right at the start, meaning everything flows all the way through. Gone are the days of manual requisitions and changing cost codes as the project goes through various approvals.\n","post_title":"BK Gulf LLC","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"bk-gulf-llc","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-27 16:30:28","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-27 14:30:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.rib-software.com\/case-study\/bk-gulf-llc\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"case-studies","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1720,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2022-05-05 13:26:00","post_date_gmt":"2022-05-05 13:26:00","post_content":"\nBurj Al Arab is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, UAE.

Since then, the company has grown exponentially to become a major contractor that specialises in all aspects of civil and structural construction works. Their key areas of focus are the resource and infrastructure sectors, and the company has completed numerous projects for the government departments of Defence, Water Corporation, Western Power, Main Roads, and Public Transport Association (PTA).\n\n\n\nIn December 2017, Westforce became part of the Raubex Group, one of South Africa\u2019s leading infrastructure and construction material supply groups. Their expertise extends across a variety of sectors including materials, roads, earthworks and infrastructure.\n\n\n\nTo date, the biggest and most successful project completed by Westforce has been a joint venture with JWI Construction, which saw both companies upgrade the drain diversion system for the Vasse River.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Challenge:\n\n\n\nAs labour in Australia is expensive, Stanley Bubb, the financial manager at Westforce has access to a smaller workforce with which to run an effective financial department. In practise, this means that he and his assistant are responsible for managing the entire department from start to finish. This includes reconciling and paying invoices, completing all cost reporting and consolidating final reports for the Raubex head office.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe most important feature for me is the seamless integration between procurement and accounting provided by RIB with BuildSmart.\nStanley Bubb, Finance ManagerWestforce Construction\n\n\n\n\n\nBefore the implementation of the RIB solution, Westforce experienced a variety of challenges including:\n\n\n\n\nManual and time-consuming procurement of orders and processing of invoices\nIneffective reconciliation\nFaulty tracking of commitments and costs\nInaccurate cost reporting to head office\nDefective payroll calculations\n\n\n\n\nThe Solution:\n\n\n\nIn June 2019, RIB successfully implemented BuildSmart for Westforce. Having worked with this cost management and construction accounting solution previously, Stanley Bubb was already well acquainted with the software which led to a seamless integration with the company\u2019s day-to-day processes and workflow.\n\n\n\nBy integrating construction and project management as well as cost and accounting administration, BuildSmart empowers Westforce to operate as a successful construction company with integrated systems that ensure the correct execution and completion of projects.\n\n\n\nToday, Westforce benefits greatly from their use of BuildSmart, with the software providing an approval matrix designed to ensure that the procurement of electronic purchase orders is always pre-approved, and the reconciliation of orders is cost efficient.\n\n\n\nCost reporting to the Raubex head office has also become effortless thanks to BuildSmart\u2019s ability to export transaction listings.\n\n\n\nThe Results:\n\n\n\nSince implementing BuildSmart, Westforce has successfully completed a number of various projects such as:\n\n\n\n\nExcavation and earthworks for the Roy Hill Iron Ore mine in Newman\nThe construction of a new access walkway for train maintenance by the Public Transport Authority in Ridgewood\nAnd the Vasse River diversion drain upgrade in Busselton mentioned previously.\n\n\n\n\nGoing forward, Westforce plans to implement Candy and integrate it with BuildSmart to harness the full potential of the RIB Complete Solution; providing the company with enhanced functionality and visibility of their processes and budgets in real-time.\n","post_title":"Westforce Construction","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"westforce-construction","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-28 08:43:09","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-28 06:43:09","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.rib-software.com\/case-study\/westforce-construction\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"case-studies","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1745,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2022-10-20 13:26:00","post_date_gmt":"2022-10-20 13:26:00","post_content":"\nIndustries:\n\n\n\nCivil Engineering\n\n\n\nGroundwork\n\n\n\nBackground:\n\n\n\nEstablished in 1994, PP Construction is a British-based contractor that operates across a variety of sectors including commercial, defence, education, infrastructure and retail.\n\n\n\nWith a hands-on approach to project management, the company believes in partnering closely with clients from the planning stage through to final delivery; this ensures every job is completed safely, on time and budget.\n\n\n\nAs a result of this ethos, PP Construction not only enjoys sustained success but repeat business from clients such as Balfour Beatty, Croudace Homes and Wates Construction. Today, the company has an annual turnover of \u00a310 million and works on projects ranging in value from \u00a350,000 to \u00a310 million.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Challenge:\n\n\n\nTo ensure the successful day-to-day operation of the organisation, PP Construction has to be able to allocate costs correctly to their project and then track the progress of each throughout the lifecycle of a project.\n\n\n\nUnfortunately, before 2021, the company utilised a spreadsheet-based system that resulted in siloed information, manual errors and no means to identify\u2014in real time\u2014if a job was losing or making money. On top of this, the business also employed a generic enterprise resource planning solution that was not tailored to the construction industry.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSupport has been absolutely incredible \u2013 even after-hours. Anytime and every time we have asked or needed support; RIB have been there for us. A quote from the last directors board meeting- \u2018These are the most solid figures and best reports we\u2019ve had in 26 years! We didn\u2019t use to know something was wrong until we ran out of money but now, we know before it gets to that and where we are losing it, allowing us to intervene and take corrective action before it\u2019s too late\u2019.\nZoe Perriam, Financial ControllerPP Construction Ltd\n\n\n\nThe Solution:\n\n\n\nAs a fully integrated cost management and enterprise accounting system, RIB BuildSmart was put forward to address the challenges encountered by PP Construction.

The contract value for this project was $3.7 million and the construction duration was ten months.\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Challenge:\n\n\n\nBefore BuildSmart was implemented, Administration Manager Mary-Ann Higgins and her team experienced numerous challenges including:\n\n\n\n\nThe execution of supplier invoice approvals and storage processes separately from their accounting system\nThe manual consolidation of contracts, plant ledger and payroll to the general ledger\nCumbersome, manual data capturing utilising a paper-based system\nA reporting process hampered by a lack of effective system report options and ineffective collation of data\nNo activity-based costing which made it difficult to establish whether a project was making a profit or a loss\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nI\u2019d recommend BuildSmart as a fully integrated system that includes payroll, plant and procurement modules. It gives us greater visibility and control, as all our information and documents are in one place. The combination of value for money, for all these modules in one system, together with dedicated support is great.\nMary-Ann Higgins, Administration Manager, Davison Earthmovers\n\n\n\nThe Solution:\n\n\n\nThe implementation of BuildSmart began in February 2021 and the solution went live in May of the same year. The entire process ran smoothly and was well received by Davison Earthmovers thanks to 24\/7 support from the RIB BuildSmart team.\n\n\n\nSince implementing the software:\n\n\n\n\nFull procurement workflow now happens automatically\nUnapproved committed costs and progress claims can be tracked and resolved accordingly\nImporting plant hours is seamlesstakes around an hour to complete as opposed to eight hours previously\nPayroll integration has improved with pay period rollover automatically posting to the contracts and general ledger\nLedger transactions can be run according to categories such as contact, supplier or by contract activity code. Reporting options and parameters have also improved vastly.\n\n\n\n\nThe Results:\n\n\n\nDavison Earthmovers\u2019 workflow and overview of their projects have been enhanced significantly with the help of BuildSmart.

Often the teams were only able to analyse the data in hindsight, by which time, corrections and alternations were too late to be fully effective. This needed to change. As a result, BK Gulf wanted to overhaul their fairly closed accounts system. The need for easily accessible, visible, real time data was identified as the core solution along with reporting and procurement functions.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRIB delivered more than we expected in a very short time frame. As part of the implementation process, the team ensured thorough knowledge transfer. This has enabled BK Gulf to realise the full benefits of the products immediately.

They used to spend around ten (10) days manually pulling together cost reports from accounts release. That\u2019s now down to two (2) days. This has huge practical advantages. Staff have more time to review the data instead of preparing it. Audit time is reduced. And the board gets reports sooner thanks to the faster release of accounts information. The whole process used to take six (6) weeks. Now it takes just two (2) to three (3).\n\n\n\nReal-time Cost Approvals with Accuracy\n\n\n\nBK Gulf are now in control of contract costs. An updated resource list of the contract and BuildSmart ICMS real-time reporting means they can sit and discuss issues for the next plan \u2013 not old issues that have already happened. Data is hugely more accurate too. Information comes from source giving better quality data they know they can trust. They no longer need to pull together separate pieces of information together, meaning they no longer risk making errors. BK Gulf now have a tool to analyse data and find out if\/where there are any discrepancies.\n\n\n\nIntelligent Integration with Integrity\n\n\n\nRIB solutions are different to other software because they link and integrate all data. Everyone at BK Gulf now works with standard reports. In the same language. In the same format. Plus tight system security keeps their data safe.Clean cost data has been the biggest improvement for BK Gulf and it\u2019s thanks to our seamless link between procurement and cost accounting. They have the cost and activity codes right at the start, meaning everything flows all the way through. Gone are the days of manual requisitions and changing cost codes as the project goes through various approvals.\n","post_title":"BK Gulf LLC","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"bk-gulf-llc","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-27 16:30:28","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-27 14:30:28","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.rib-software.com\/case-study\/bk-gulf-llc\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"case-studies","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1720,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2022-05-05 13:26:00","post_date_gmt":"2022-05-05 13:26:00","post_content":"\nBurj Al Arab is a luxury hotel located in Dubai, UAE.

During the planning stage, it was known as the Green Point Stadium, which was the name of the previous stadium on the site, and this name was also used frequently during World Cup media coverage. The stadium has been crafted to take full advantage of the beauty of the area. At night, lit up against the black sky, the stadium appears to be a floating rose-shaped bowl. During the day, its Teflon-coated fibreglass facade reflects the ambience of the city, dependent on its weather patterns \u2013 bright, sunny skies or dramatic grey clouds.\n\n\n\nOf particular interest is the design of the stadium\u2019s roof. Don\u2019t be fooled by its bicycle wheel-like appearance. This glass-panelled roof has in fact been built according to a groundbreaking design, which protects spectators from rain and strong winds, lets light in, and reduces noise from within. Water that drains from the pitch, as well as water from the stadium\u2019s roof, is collected and pumped into ponds at the Green Point Common, helping the stadium to achieve its high levels of environmental protection.\n\n\n\n\n\nClient: Murray & Roberts and WBHO\n\n\n\nOwner: Cape Town Municipality\n\n\n\nLocation: Cape Town, South Africa\n\n\n\nScope of work: Building\n\n\n\nSector: Leisure, Recreation, Education\n\n\n\nContract Period: Broke ground 26 March 2007 \u2013 Opened 14 December 2009 (33 months)\n\n\n\nContract Value: US$ 95 000 000\n\n\n\nFloors: 7\n\n\n\nSteel: 15 593 tons\n\n\n\nConcrete: 140 000m3\n\n\n\nField Size: 290 X 265 X 48 M\n\n\n\nProduct used: RIB Candy\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInteresting Facts:\n\n\n\n\nFirst match played: 23 January 2010\nThe stadium had a seating capacity of 64,100 during the 2010 World Cup; later reduced to 55,000.\nIt is the home ground of Premier Soccer League clubs Ajax Cape Town (since 2010) and Cape Town City (since 2016). It has also hosted the South Africa Sevens rugby tournament since 2015.\nIts innovative design enables the stadium to be illuminated by natural light, minimising the number of lights needed, and hence increasing its energy efficiency.\nWhen deconstructed, 95% of the old Green Point Stadium\u2019s components were able to be recycled and reused.\nA cleverly-designed moat around the circumference of the field prevents field invasions.\nThe stadium\u2019s acoustic-dampening design makes it the ideal venue for music concerts.\nA police station has been constructed inside the stadium to deal with any unruly incidents or people at the stadium.\n\n","post_title":"Cape Town Stadium","post_excerpt":"","post_status":"publish","comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","post_password":"","post_name":"cape-town-stadium","to_ping":"","pinged":"","post_modified":"2024-08-27 15:53:47","post_modified_gmt":"2024-08-27 13:53:47","post_content_filtered":"","post_parent":0,"guid":"https:\/\/www.rib-software.com\/case-study\/cape-town-stadium\/","menu_order":0,"post_type":"case-studies","post_mime_type":"","comment_count":"0","filter":"raw"},{"ID":1732,"post_author":"9","post_date":"2022-05-05 13:26:00","post_date_gmt":"2022-05-05 13:26:00","post_content":"\n\u201cThis museum will provide a home for a global community working to imagine, design and execute a better future.\u2019\u2019 This Project is earmarked an Iconic project for the UAE and a mainstay for Dubai tourism.
